Kind staff and clean place but I got the WORST gel pedicure for $50 + tip. Uneven, sloppy paint and the lady was rushing the whole time which did not make the experience very enjoyable or relaxing. Will not be returning. read more

Ivy Nails & Spa - Sloppy, uneven paint. - Nail Salons Near Me - Riverview, Florida

I've been coming for years and I thought we had a good relationship until I became a number. I have making my appts directly with Jonneson weeks in advance we have learned many techniques together over the last 5 years experimenting and he was also learning how to use matte or add different textures and ombré, or marbled dip. The problem I had was He didn't even take the time to talk with me, or ask if he could reschedule me to someone that takes longer and charges me more. For example Jonneson can do a dip set in less than 2 hours even if he gets up to answer every phone call or walk in which on average has been a lot. Anywhere from 6 people to more. He would charge $70-$85 I never said a thing and always waited for him to return and paid whatever to have exactly what I asked for. I didn't appreciate having my appt moved to someone else that cannot do the same work in the same amount of time the day before my appt. In comparison I would pay more with Kim $85-$110 for because she took more time and could do the dip design like Jonneson and she used Gel. Also the last time she didn't paint some of my edges not fully coated and with my natural nails they would crack or peel at the edges. She also took almost 3-1/2 hours to do them. So very different experience and higher cost for lower end product aka gel vs dip and longer time. So unfortunately after so many years of feeling like maybe we had a good customer relationship it was very frustrating to rely on having my nails done here and the quality I was getting with Jonneson to getting a text to go somewhere-else when there wasn't a problem until he created it. The text message said that he wanted to answer the phones more and do more management and not do any more nails. Why was that so difficult to have a conversation with a long-time customer and say look things are getting busier and moving away from doing nails like yours and want to do more basic manicures or stop doing them all together. I followed you from Bliss nails where he started as a technician to Encore where he was promoted to manager. So much for loyalty. I was hoping for communication and not what happened after I wrote a review when my appointment was cancelled on me without notice. Hopefully this doesn't happened to the next person or remember that there is always a chance that when you think you found your mail tech in a instant and without notice you can find yourself out of luck ! read more

I've been going to the salon for 4 years now for lip and eyebrow waxing. For the most part everything has been fine. However, the last time I went the girl took about half of my eyebrow off.... So obviously I wasn't very happy about that. I gave my eyebrows significant time to regrow and I went back in last night to have my lip and eyebrows waxed. The wax felt a lot hotter than normal and actually left burn marks below my eyebrow and around my mouth. When she waxed my lip I actually started to bleed. I had blood around my mouth and in the corner of my lip. I have never had this before. My biggest complaint about this place, besides how horrible the last two visits were, is the fact that they do not have ample lighting in the room where they wax. Therefore, I don't think that they can clearly see what they're doing and as a customer, it's very hard for me to see the quality of the waxing. Needless to say, my eyebrows look terrible, it looks like she didn't wax anything off at all except for my skin. So basically I paid $18 to have botched wax job that I can't correct right now because I have third degree burns around my mouth and my eyebrows. I will not be going back. read more

Was not a relaxing experience!!! I went to this new nail bar for a pedicure. First let me say it was difficult from the moment I was seated. The nail Tech "Tony" didn't speak a word of English nor did he understand a word of what I was saying! The nail tech doing my friend who was seated beside me had to be both of our translators. When he went to rinse my feet with the fresh water hose it came out scalding hot and burned my foot. I screamed and flew out of the chair. My girlfriend stated that she had never seen me jump do high so fast! This is as I am recovering from spine surgery! Something I certainly didn't need to experience. The nail tech barely apologized, and I'm not even sure he comprehended what he just did! The nail tech doing my girlfriend was the one who kept apologizing and asking if I was ok. As for the pedi, my nails were filed by him uneven. My left foot had a crack in the corner of the big toe. I tried to explain that I wanted my nail cut evenly to the crack and filed to make it straight and even. Again, the other girl had to try to explain what I wanted. My right toenail is filed longer on both sides and the middle is shorter. I was thinking of going back to get it fixed but decided against it. I will go to another salon. When I left and went to pay no offer of any kind was made for being burned and for my experience. Not even a discount of any kind. I paid and I will not be returning, there are many salons to choose from. read more

Was looking for a nail salon after the wait at one I knew was too long. Took at chance at Encore as glad I did. They were able to get me in and Dawn was able to correct less than perfect nails from the salon I went to prior. She help me pick out a great color and did a great job with thinning out and re-shaping my nails. I have found a new nail salon. Pedicures is next! Stay tuned for that review. I also felt very safe with their COVID Precautions. you have to sign a waiver that you understand you're getting nail services during Covid and that you have not experienced any symptoms or traveled international or domestic. They take a temperature and make you wash your hands before service. Everyone wore masks and gloves during the service and you are protected by eight plastic partition between you and the tech. I watch them clean their tools between customers and Apple Pay and google pay is available. read more

If you want to have a horrible experience with workers that have an attitude and act like they don't want you to be there, then I would highly recommend this place. If you want to have a great experience then I advise you look for another nail salon.

Okay, I had to give it a try. I walked in at 10:46. I left at 1:45. All I wanted was a pedicure with gel polish and a manicure with dip powder. Cost me 104.00. The pedicure took forever and because it took so long it took away the idea of relaxation. The tech was an older guy and he was SUPER sweet. But my polish was mediocre and when I asked if it could be fixed he was about to put polish on top of my gel which defeats the purpose of paying 15 extra for gel polish. The 42 aspect of the pedicure I chose was rushed. He spent most of the time on removing my gel polish which was frustrating. But he was a super nice guy so the wait wasn't terrible just not idea being 9 months pregnant. I moved over to get my manicure. Better experience. I do think 37 for dip on natural nails is a little pricey. And then the manicure was an extra 10 but not worth it in my opinion. Tech was extremely nice but I think she put too many layers of dip and my nails look more like acrylic than my natural nails. It doesn't look bad by any means and doesn't bother me except if I'm being charged for my natural nails I'd like to preserve my look. I can't say I'll never be back but I can't say I've found my nail home either. The price was just not right for me and that's nothing against them just my budget. Overall, not terrible. read more

Before today, I had no problem with this nail shop. I arrived around 5:35 p.m. for a quick pedicure, signed in, and was told they were closed. Uhhhh wayment Sir, your website states that you close at 6:30 p.m., and your front door sign states the same. When asked what time do they close, he stated that he had sent everyone home and that no one wanted to do a pedicure. Why would you send everyone home on a Saturday? I'll gladly take my coins somewhere else. Thank you, Amour Beauty (Johnny), for your excellent service!!!!! read more

Ivy Nails & Spa - Never go to Encore Nail Bar it has terrible service - Nail Salons Near Me - Riverview, Florida

If I could give them a negative 0 I would! Saturday 2/4 I went to Enore Nail Bar I had appointment with Emily sweetest nail tech in the world . I asked for a certain nail design which I will include in the end . She wasn't able to do it. Which is understandable so she started doing my French tips & I wasn't liking the way they were coming out . so I asked could we add a tip because I wasn't feeling it. she said she wasn't able too add a tip and she would get someone else to do them. Ok cool , she gave me to the sunny the guy in the wheelchair. He started on my nails then before he laid the nail coat down he said "for a full set it's gonna be $70 dollar " $70 ?! for a full set I did agree to paying it like a dummy. He then goes to say " ok you can't change your mind anymore if you do I'll kick your ass" First of all yo ass gotta get up to kick my ass ! & secondly I told him if I'm playing my money just like everyone else up in here I want nails done the right way specially if I'm paying y'all! you just not about to do a shitty job and want to get paid & that's what he did ! A shitty job! If you do decide to go there & want a mani or pedi ask for Emily & if you want some designs ask for Kim . Them is the only TWO good people they have there that knows what they are doing . The pinks nails is what "Sunny" did don't ask for him HE CAN NOT DO NAILS! He did that pink mess to my nails . My nails look rushed, lumpy ,horrible looks like a five year old did my nails. To sandy the receptionist you deserve a raise in a better job they do not deserve you!!! I will not be coming back to ENORE NAIL BAR! Won't ever get a penny out of me I can promise you that. SN: I had to go to another nail place to get what I was asking . The second picture is what I got done later on that day! You can tell from the second picture the other nail place knows what they are doing not "Enore" read more

Did my nails here less than a wk ago. Already broken. Leaving town and they won't even fix 2 brkn nails due to the lack of dip applied by the technician. Thin dip layers don't make gr8 or perfect wrk! Customer Service sucks! They don't accommodate to the client when it's their fault! read more

I have passed this nail bar several times and today I decided to give them a try. I am so glad I did because my express truly five star. I was impressed with how thorough they were with the COVID safety measures. I can unequivocally say... this was the best pedicure I've ever had. My tech was friendly and thorough and a true perfectionist. The ambience was relaxing and beautiful and the leg/foot massage was EVERYTHING! I will definitely be returning. read more

Emily does a great job for manicures and pedicures. Her massage is wonderful and she is meticulous in caring for you.

I got my prom nails done here after a previous good experience at the salon. My nails came out pretty close to the inspiration pic, some of the art and lining was off and the shape of the nails weren't consistent. I thought the small details were insignificant because I was happy with the overall result...until the nails started lifting. The lifting got worse throughout the week after I got the set done. After that week they popped off. I did not do anything extraneous while I had the nails on, I am a student, I went to school and went home. I am very unhappy about my nails lasting a week, a good set should last two, maybe three weeks. read more

Poor communication and customer service. Worst pedicure I've ever received in 20+ years. Went for their more expensive pedicure after much persistence from the technician, it was the one with the hot stone and they literally burned my skin. The polish was literally all over my toes and she cut me twice. Once she was done she simply went to the front of the store and sat to chat with the other artists leaving me in the back without any guidance. There is no obvious sterilization of tools they literally bring it out on a tray from the back and half of them look rusted. I regret not getting up and walking out sooner. Wouldn't be surprised if I walked out with a staph infection. I wouldn't recommend my worst enemy to have services done here and you shouldn't either. read more

I did not leave a comment the first visit for maybe one reason, it was just blah. I decided to give this place a 2nd Chance. Amy delivered. She is hilarious and I love her personality. She has a sense of humor and speaks sarcasm as well which I love! Lol. I will most definitely be back as Amy's regular! She took her time and did not make me feel rushed despite how busy they were. read more

All I got was a simple gel pedicure. This took them over two hours, as they messed up several times and had to take the polish off of every nail after they were dried. He gave me a discount of $15 (the price of gel polish). he promised he would fix them for me, but I somehow left with polish all over my toes after being there for over two hours. On top of that the day after the gel polish started to peel. This has never happened in the 10 years that I have been getting gel. I called and told him I needed a refund since my toes peeled the next day. He refused to refund me. I will never step foot in the salon again and recommend you don't either. A waste of time and money read more

This place discriminates against those unable to wear a mask and Refused service because I refused to wear one. Apparently what the governor says is not good enough. Take your money where you are appreciated. Thumbs down. I came to LA nails and they are a dream. If you need to wear one you can and if not then they respect your free right as Americans.

Encore nail bar located next to Moes grill is another new nail spot in Riverview area and they are definitely worth the time for this review. I'm not a nail person so I'm very indecisive when it comes to what I want lol the staff was so patient and the customer service was top notch as hoped for. The technicians are super knowledgeable and don't try to push things on you, prices are right, They offer complimentary beverages, and most importantly they are very clean. I had Julie,my daughter had Amy, and my mother had Tatiyana, and we are all satisfied with the work done. We went on a Tuesday afternoon and there was not a wait time at all. Even when it began filling up they still had a great turn around time. Very happy to have finally found a salon. read more

Wow wow wow, this place gets all five stars and more! So clean, everyone is friendly and nice, and at fair prices! I got dip on my nails and a Pedicure, neither disappointed. I was taken immediately, and done with my dip within an hour. My pedicure was the normal "express" one since it hadn't been too long since my last and it too was amazing. They offer you one complimentary drink of water, soda, tea, coffee, or an alcoholic beverage, I went with water. For speedy service at high quality I recommend trying. The only downside is parking, they share a parking lot with Moes and a Dentist so parking can be a bit crammed. read more

I went in on Tuesday 12/14 for a gel mani and reg pedi. Today is Sunday 12/19 and my nails look like this?!?! ( the pink set, the orange was another set the same lady did) It was a late visit so towards the end of my visit I was the only customer in the shop with the nail tech and the young man who I believe is the owner. I have had this tech before and she is an older lady. I felt like she was rushing Bc it was almost closing time and it shows. Towards the end of my visit she stood up to finish my nails and it's sloppy. She used about 20 coats of paint so they look chunky. How is the gel lifting less than one week later? Usually my gel lasts 2-3 weeks!!! I have had her before and she did a terrible job then and even worse now! This is unacceptable for the price I pay. I don't have a tech I go to normally Bc most of the people do a good job, my last person I believe was the owners wife? She did a wonderful job. I feel I am owed a new mani free of charge I pay too much money for this type of job! read more

Walked into this new nail bar due to 2 reviews on yelp and because it was close to the house. It has been open for only 2 months. Not disappointed at all. Lynn did my pedicure and also massaged my hands. They also offered me something to drink. The service provided was thorough and Lynn was gentle removing the old gel polish and prepping my toes. I would certainly go back. read more

Went here for the first time with my mom the day before Mother's Day because I wanted to treat her. I've been doing my own nails for quite some time and therefore haven't been to a salon but I figured I'd give it a go. The staff is nice and offered soda or water but everything else was just not good. He made my natural nail extremely thin, and the application is not good. He got acrylic on my skin, and the nails are lumpy. He charged me $90 for these, and because I didn't want to be rude or make a scene I paid. But I debated going back and asking for a refund. read more

Pedicure was great. He ended up nicking my big toe when he was scrubbing. My acrylic fill was VERY rushed. Half of the nails are now rounded on one side instead of square. You can tell where the top coat was not put on well... and never got a bottom coat. The pedicure was relaxing, I'll say that. However, the fact that I felt like a problem getting a fill means I may just come here for the pedis. read more

I went to this place again because the manager gave me a gift card for rough pedicure that left my skin raw and painful.
